Much more likely. I should have added the /s. This was a dig at their “graveyard” of apps and services.

So they can ax the projects and then blame it on staffing?

It would be awesome if they did face consequences so I didn’t have to keep my credit locked while I go through the process of getting a new SSN. This is getting ridiculous. They notified me by mail like a week ago that my data is in this breach too. This really needs to stop happening.

Or we don’t understand it.

Linux. They should do Steam OS. Their main downfall right now is windows and the price point. But for the price they often offer better hardware. Steam OS is a much better experience than Nintendo’s ecosystem and the dockability of these handhelds is already on par with the switch. They can do a lot more than the switch and switch two will be able to do with more game availability and game streaming as well.

She still won the popular vote by millions. The thing is though, the electoral college is a relic that needs an overhaul at best, and that’s problematic for a lot of reasons. I largely agree with you though.

Before smartphones we had snake and Tetris on non smart phones and we liked it. Before that books and news papers were popular.

Other platforms exist. I’m sure they’ll be fine.

You’re in for a treat, my friend. I hope you love the book.

Manual lawnmower.

The surface RT and windows ME e-machine computer were both a close second.

Who’s driving that ambulance?

If we used billboards for something like missing children or traffic announcements etc I’d be okay with that. But pretty much no actual ads for products. Billboards are a driving distraction and I don’t approve.

Whatever floats your boat. But EMS recommends against inserting things that don’t have a flared base. Do with that information whatever you want.

It’s a novelty lay on toy. Not for insertion.

The thing is, if I want something I’ll go looking for it. At the point where I’m looking for it or something like it, I am happy to consume ads even tangentially related to that thing. If analytics marketing worked this way (showing me relevant ads when I’m shopping for something, even if it’s for something I am not actively looking for), things would be better. But ads have worked their way into the cracks of everything and that’s my problem with them.

I hate Billboards. I don’t like circulars (waste of paper and generally too much trash), I hate junk mail and I think it’s predatory. Popups (singing, flashing, scrolling when I scroll to stay on the page, tiny exit buttons, video, etc) are garbage.

Are the tanks sound proofed too?

Trump would kill himself in a week. Vetinari wouldn’t even have to do anything except talk to his dog during the debate. Vetinari would even put through a request the the Assassins guild to make sure the price to beat was too high to have him assassinated. Just to make a point.

I’ve actually gone out of my way to avoid it but that has nothing to do with the accuracy of the results (although I would need those results to be accurate), and everything to do with avoiding ads and using the search web function to find very specific and detailed information rather than a summary.

In my short experience with the AI features for search specifically, I have experienced not being able to see the source of that information without having to click through and scroll down or continue a conversation with prompts. I don’t want that. It very often slows down my work flow and that’s the intention. To keep me on the page making additional queries and looking at more ads.

I have experienced Gemini with my phone though and it’s actively worse than google assistant and home assistant in a lot of ways. Features that have allowed me for years to control smart devices and have been broken or unreliable. More so than the results of the Sonos lawsuit.

I want my devices to work. I don’t want to have a conversation with a device to turn on lights or find out what the weather is like. Bottom line, the point of my comment was that (obnoxious to you or not), nobody is under attack for using AI products.

I’m sure an OTA will fix it. /S
